In My Mailbox 9.18.11
In My Mailbox was created by Kristi at The Story Siren because:
"I get books to read and then ultimately share my thoughts about with my readers. As much as I want to, I can’t possibly read every book I receive. Yet, I still wanted a way to feature those books on the blog, even though it might not be in the form of a review. Problem solved! Every week I'd share the books I received that week... ones I'd bought, or gotten at the library, and ones that I'd receive to review on the blog. That way I could mention titles that might not otherwise get some face-time on The Story Siren..."
I find the same thing happening at A Backwards Story. I'm so backed up on reviews atm... That's why I like these videos!
(Shown/Previously Purchased: SILVER PHOENIX by Cindy Pon & FURY OF THE PHOENIX by Cindy Pon...
And this is the desktop background/FURY movie poster I entered into her FURY Meets MAD MEN contest:
Which, if you like it, you're welcome to download full-size, 1600 x 1200 FURY poster to use as a background image here. I uploaded it onto Deviant Art. I've never posted anything on there before, so let me know if it isn't working right!
and Shown: Framed version of Plum Blossoms with Bird, a painting by Cindy Pon that I won:
...pretty cool, right!?)
